I have an eclipse plugin and I want to perform certain action inside this plugin but after eclipse application is opened. I tried to do it through overriding public void postWindowCreate() but it seems that I can't get inside this function when launching the application Any ideas ? Do you use e4? Then maybe the following link may help: http://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/m/886197/ Edit: OK, do you define your own application?

I am loading my ComboViewer with over one thousand elements. Some elements are longer than the width of underlying combo . I want to add tooltip on the entries and NOT on the combo . I want it in such a way that, when the list drops down and the user places the mouse pointer over one of the value, the entire text should be displayable via tooltip similar to the tooltip shown for a JFace TableViewer .

I like to use the navigation history provided by Eclipse in my RCP Application. Unfortunately this feature isn't well documented. In fact I only found this Wiki entry: http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_hook_my_editor_to_the_Back_and_Forward_buttons%3F It mentions that every editor can be marked in the navigation history, without having to specify a location. This is exactly what I want. Regardless of whether the specific editor has any support for navigation history, markLocation will work. If the editor doesn’t implement INavigationLocationProvider, a history entry will be added, allowing

Is it possible to use the 64bit XulRunner for Windows ( available from here ) with the Eclipse browser widget? It works fine under 32bit Windows and the answer to this question explains how this works. But when I try this under 64bit Windows I get the following exception: org.eclipse.swt.SWTError: No more handles (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Could not load SWT library.
